In 2012 Natasha Jacobs began writing songs, and committed a promise to herself to get over a lifelong fear of performing. In 2014 while studying composition at SUNY Purchase, she began experimenting with electronic processing and started writing songs beyond a solo acoustic framework. Six months after Thelma's solo debut in 2015, Daniel Siles, Maciej Lewandowski, and Juan Pablo Siles joined. With a full band now behind Jacobs, the music began to stretch into a powerful new direction. Led by hauntingly beautiful vocals and rich, lyrical imagery, Thelma resides in those places that remain undefined. Possessing otherworldly qualities, Thelma's songs are full of magic and mystery, with wistful melodies floating by in a dream-like state. The lyrics are striking in their description and tone, adding even more depth to the band's ambitious songs. A brilliant synergy of folk songwriting, electronic experimentation and dramatic arrangements, Thelma is a band hard to define but impossible to dismiss.
